Still doing Kevara injection every other weeks. This month I’m down to 2 mg Prednisone one day and 1 mg the next, hopefully down to 1 mg next month. My white blood cell and absolute neutrophil counts have decreased significantly. I’m due for additional blood tests in about a week and we’ll see if they decrease further. I’ll see my rheumatologist in about 2 weeks and we’ll discuss the course of treatment.

Sounds familiar.
Was at Rehumy yesterday. 7 months Kevzara and the low WBC and neutrafils caught up with me too. Have been off prednisone for 3+ months.
Dr has me stretching out the Kevzara shots to every 3 wks and more blood test in 6wks. 🤞
Meantime I use/have used Tylenol for Arthritis as a bandaid when needed.
Hope this helps you.
Good luck
